No Vimeo videos work in Chromium on Windows 10 due to the fact that the browser doesn't support H.264 video decoding (look at any video on vimeo.com). 

User agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; WOW64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/46.0

Youtube clips work fine, but not Vimeo.

This is by design. H.264 is not a free codec, so Chromium does not embed it.
Just use Chrome.
